The 21-year-old made 22 appearances for Bochum in all competitions, scored five goals and registered three assists as they finished 8th on the league table.
"About a year ago today I began a new chapter in my career at @vflbochum1848.official, and I was determined to go there and make a significant impact. During my time at @vflbochum1848.official, I strongly developed as a footballer and as a person."
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank the staff, coaches, and my previous manager for making this possible. Additionally, I want to give a big shoutout to my teammates whom I shared a dressing room with. I strongly believe that this current group of players can push for promotion next season.
"Last but not least, I want to thank the @vflbochum1848.official fans for the exceptional support they showed throughout the season, even though the difficult times. You were amazing. Thank you for all the great memories @vflbochum1848.official ???" he posted.
